lyrics

After the rain, the pain won't remain
She's found her target and it can't be the same
Dense as wood, he never could
Pick up signals or hints all that good

She doesn't like me, there's no way
She only greets me on my annual birthday
Better give up, there's no affection
My greatest fear is her rejection

But he was wrong and he feelings went on
To get to him she needed something strong
Opened her purse, dialed the code
Primed her ballistics aimed to explode

She's playing a game, messing around
But I'm no fool, I ain't her clown
Let her get any guy she wants
Compliments are not my response

Now she's locking on
The satellite grid stretches long
Missiles in Cuba take their marks
Ready to aim at her dense boy's heart

LOVE IS WAR, NUCLEAR WAR
Hold my Dead Man hand it's war
Don't understand what they fight for
Her love is spicier than a Third World War

You stupid buffoon, I love you
This is why I do what I do
Annex your spirit just from the start
and instill my government in your heart

His greatest defense hair that hid his brow
He was the Kai-Shek to her Mao
She can't recognize his sovereign soul
He was the one she could not control

She's just a flirt, for all it's worth
Don't see why anyone would like me
It's comedy, she wants to play
But this Cold War ends today

She's gonna make him feel
That her love is really for real
Night raid, Dresden, one final push
To his Gulf she goes George Bush

LOVE IS WAR, BIOCHEMICAL WAR
International spicy war
Our allies don't know what we fight for
Fighting for love in a missile war

You damn fool, Teddy Roosevelt tool
Jingo Jango tryna hold your ground
If you don't see I love you
Than a Blitzkrieg is what I'm gonna do

The war was won and now it can be told
She gave up and left the poika cold
He'll dream of her one of these days
and chase the chance he turned away
